Reviews
"[Y]ou will be amazed, as I have been, at how compelling worms, frogs, and scientific exploration can be."-- Lake Superior Magazine " North Shore reminds us that the natural history of the region is still being written, and that all of us who live near its shores are the creators of the next chapter."-- The Ely Winter Times "Chel Anderson and Adelheid Fischer have written an accessible book that comprehensively describes the history and geology of the coast, surrounding highlands, and Lake Superior itself. In addition, the authors have provided fascinating subchapters on some of the most interesting species that are key elements of the region."-- The Prairie Naturalist "[ North Shore ] is a celebration of the big and little lives that make Lake Superior and its surrounding region so richly complex, an eye-opening recounting of human errors that have brought the natural systems close to collapse."-- SEJournal "Compelling and accessible, the book provides readers with a science-based knowledge of the Minnesota North Shore watershed."-- Ely Timberjay "The book's merits merits include breathtaking photos, maps and charts, handsome page design, and impassioned writing."-- CHOICE " North Shore. . . is vast in scope, thought-provoking, and poetic in places. It is full of passages that invite repeated visits, and reveal deeper meanings with each visit."-- Wilderness News, "In North Shore , lovers of that sacred strip of scree and cold water finally have a definitive natural history. But they also have a meticulous and wondrous book that will entertain as much as educate, that demystifies even as it allows for the magical moments the North Shore is famous for inspiring. I've never felt so in tune with my favorite place as I did turning the last page of this book, and seldom have I felt so thankful." --Peter Geye " North Shore: A Natural History of Minnesota's Superior Coast reads like a friendly and detailed journal that Great-great-great-great Grandmother Earth has been keeping from the very beginning. It tells the natural and cultural story of the North Shore: past, present, and future." --Betsy Bowen, writer, illustrator, and long-time North Shore resident, " North Shore satisfies in its breadth but never complicates. "-- Great Lakes Echo "[Y]ou will be amazed, as I have been, at how compelling worms, frogs, and scientific exploration can be.
